Brief Answer: Possibily sloughed out mucosa Detailed Answer: Hi Welcome to Healthcare-Magic Greetings of the day Dear Mr XXXXXXX Many individuals following Cystoscopy do pass out whitish secretions. It is partially sloughed out mucosa and mucous discharge. In the absence of pain and fever there is absolutely no cause for worry. Ensuring good water intake of 2-3 liter of water everyday is all that is required. Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
